Ivanka Trump And Jared Kushner Show Up For Victory Speech After Absence From Campaign Trail
HuffPost
The couple has been mostly absent from the campaign but they re-emerged to bask in Trump's victory.
Ivanka Trump and husband Jared Kushner largely kept their distance from Donald Trump’s campaign this time around, but took the stage with him when the Republican nominee gave a victory speech early Wednesday.
The two clapped as the former president basked in his political comeback and in the GOP taking back control of the Senate.
But they played little role in the win, apparently.
The president-elect’s oldest daughter campaigned for him in 2016 and 2020, offering a softer side than her belligerent, bloviating father. She served as one of his top advisers in his first term.
But when the elder Trump launched his third bid for the White House after his 2020 defeat amid mounting legal woes, she announced that she and Kushner, who was also a senior adviser in the Trump White House, were leaving politics to focus on their family.
